A Study In Adult Healthy Volunteers To Asses Once Daily (QD) Dosing With The Selected Age-Appropriate Modified Release (MR) Formulations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety of an age-appropriate tofacitinib Modified Release (MR) formulation with varying level of enteric coating. The effect of food on the PK of age-appropriate tofacitinib MR formulation with the lowest and higher levels of enteric coating will also be assessed.

Treatment and study plan

tofacitinib modified release (MR)

Drug

Single oral 10 mg multi particulate dose of dose of tofacitinib MR with different levels of enteric coating (MR E1, MR E2, and MR E3) in the fasted state. Additionally, the lowest and highest enteric coating levels will also be evaluated in the fed state.

Treatment F: a 10 mg oral dose of tofacitinib IR solution

Primary outcomes

  1. Primary outcome: Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time [AUC (0 - ∞)] (AUCinf )

    Time frame: 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 21, 24, 36, and 48 hours post dose

    Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time [AUC (0 - ∞)]

  2. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast)

    Time frame: 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 21, 24, 36, and 48 hours post dose

    Area under the plasma concentration time-curve from zero to the last measured concentration (AUClast) of Modified Release (MR) formulation compared to Immediate Release (IR) solution

  3. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Time frame: predose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 21, 24, 36, and 48 hours post dose

    Maximum (or peak) plasma concentration of MR formulation compared to IR solution

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    The incidence of all-causality TEAEs is summarized by System Organ Class (SOC) and MedDRA preferred term

    Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Treatment Related)

    For each AE, the investigator will pursue and obtain information adequate both to determine the outcome of the AE and to assess whether it met the criteria for classification as a serious adverse event (SAE)

  2. Number of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Leading to Discontinuation

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    Discontinuations from the study or study treatment due to AEs, temporary discontinuations or dose reductions due to AEs reported during the study

  3. Number of Participants With Clinically Significan Change from Baseline in Physical Examination Findings

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    Full Physical examination includes examination of the head, ears, eyes, nose, mouth, skin, heart and lung examinations, lymph nodes, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, and neurological systems. A limited or abbreviated physical examination assesses the participants for any potential changes in general appearance, the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, as well as towards participant reported symptoms. Findings are considered to be clinically significant based on investigator's assesment.

  4. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Change from Baseline in Vital Signs

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    The following parameters will be analyzed for examination of vital signs: oral temperature, supine blood pressure, pulse rate.

  5. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Change in the QTC interval from Baseline in 12-lead ECGs

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    Criteria for potential clinical concern in ECG parameters: maximum corrected QT interval (QTc) from baseline is greater than or equal in range of 45 millisecond (msec); or an absolute QTc value of greater than or equal in range of 500 msec in any scheduled ECG.

  6. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Laboratory Abnormalities

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 3 months

    The following parameters will be analyzed for laboratory examination: hematology, chemistry, urinalysis, microsopy [only if urine dipstick is positive for blood, protein, nitrites or leukocyte esterase]; other [only at screening] serum follicle stimulating hormone ) for female subjects only who are amenorrheic for at least 12 consecutive months), urine drug testing hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core antibody, hepatitis C antibody, HIV, QuantiFERON Gold test. Clinical significance of laboratory parameters will be determined at the investigator's discretion.
